How a Cup Day Transfer Works

Group Size and Vehicle

For a group of up to four, a Luxury Sedan or Executive SUV works well. For five to seven, the Mercedes 7 Seater Van keeps the group together, and for eight to eleven we run a Sprinter. Corporate marquee guests often book several vehicles for the same arrival time, so please give us your numbers early.

Cup week is our busiest period and vehicles are allocated in the order bookings are received. Planning the rest of the carnival? See our Melbourne Cup Carnival visitor guide and the full events and race days list.
